This tag is showing a stamp resist with distress paints. I was really surprised at how nicely the distress paints stamp. Usually when I've stamped with paint it ends up really thick. I was able to use a detailed stamp here.
I next tried out the eroded metallic. I love the look of this technique. It was tricky to get the right look. I want to get some more paint colors so I can try this with other metals and backgrounds.
This technique was called altered surfaces. Tim Holtz demonstrated it with plastic pieces from his line. I wasn't able to get any of those so I die cut two elements from chipboard and a metal sheet. I didn't have the right colors of paint to achieve the patina look so I went for a rusted metal finish.
